The turbo is exposed but the track is a long ways away from the turbo. The only thing that worries me right now is the exposed air intake. One call to powderlites and they informed me that they have an updated shield that will protect it. Ill take pictures before and after but it wont be for a couple of weeks as im back up north working again.

I fabbed up a protection plate for the entire turbo, should work well and looks great. If there's any interest I could post pics and maybe sell a few.

Powder Lites Install Nytro
Please remove ball and spring on Boost controller T so stop boost spiking and over boosting.
We now have cover for intake to Airfilter.
Anyone that has Lite or prolite software go to TotallyYamaha 4 stroke forums and there is new map. Nov 27/08

Just to clarify, the ball and spring is located on the wastegate side(arrow head on sticker) on the little T that ties in between the compressor housing and the wastegate actuator.
The new map can be found in this thread:

Loco,
Sounds like Dave has the protection issue covered...I don't really have the time to deal with it anyhow, so I'm just going to leave well enough alone. Good luck with your build!

did you have a question about anything?
with the cold weather and christmas I won't be riding until mid january.
I have purchased the blue bike kit to tune from my cell phone as well as the little bracket dave has to protect the intake tube . other than that no new updates to report

Great thread...Half way through mine....It's a whole lot of work on these Nytro's compared to Apex/RX-1, but it should be worth it in the end...The new instructions are WAY better than the first too, so things are moving forward now.. Hope to get it fired up before new-years...

quick question for anyone. Wich is wich of the oil return and oil in on the turbo?
I had a brainfart...Looking at the newer instructions, the turbo hanger seemed to be in the opposite direction of what it should be. I don't have the updated kit, so my turbo hanger was in one piece...mounted it the wrong way looking at the newer instructions....
I can't really figure out excactly how to mount the overflow bottle and the new relay bracket up front, but looking at pictures in this thread makes a little more sence...
Kit looks to be very well thought out so far...I'm really looking forward to a test ride, hopefully tomorrow...

the braided line is the high pressure feed line and goes from the t at tbe oil pressure sensor to the top of the turbo. the return line is the bigger hose and goes from the bottom of the turbo to the timing oil return pump which is hooked to the timing inspection hole
dave will send you the updated parts if you call him. they make the install much easier
O
well, both of them needs to go to the top of the turbo...there's nothing to connect them to under the turbo...I don't seem to be able to upload a pic, but both the hole for the feed, and the return is located on top of the turbo, so my question is is the feed the one closest to the wastegate?
I know dave will send the parts, but I'm in Norway, so it would take me 2 weeks to get them, and I need the sled done by tomorrow for a customer...

im sorry but that makes no sense to me. are you talking about the two stainless 90 degree elbows at the top of the turbo ? if do those are the coolant lines! the oil line is in the middle of the turbo (cartridge) and the bottom of the turbo has an aluminum box with a nipple that points to the front of the sled
ill pm you my phone number and email address and ill see if I can help. im by the phone now for the next couple hours so feel free to call
O
Sorry, I'm way to tired at the moment. I'm talking about the coolant lines, not oil. Sorry about that. I haven't got around to working on the oil yet. Wich is wich of the COOLANTS on top of the turbo?
